Bullshit. You could have had a bunch of civil servants in there and you would have had Jack sh*T for long term growth and the options would have been worthless as well as the entire company.

the options spurred on the employees to perform and create wealth for all of you. At the time I got mine it was a GIANT risk and I took a $25k cut in pay to work there. It took 14 years forthem to become worth something, meanwhile we all built divisions which still to this day produce $1.5B a year in free cash flow.
